 ====Name origin====
-Nidorina may be a combination of ''needle'' and ''{{wp|rhinoceros}}''. ''Nido'' may also be based on ''{{wp|cnidocyte}}'', a type of venomous cell responsible for the stings delivered by stinging animals, most notably by {{wp|jellyfish}}. Alternatively, it may be based on 二 ''ni'' (two) or 二度 ''nido'' (two times/two degrees), referring to the two distinct evolutionary lines using the name with similar names and traits. ''Rina'' likely alludes to its female gender; in some languages, such as {{wp|Spanish language|Spanish}} and {{wp|Italian language|Italian}}, names and words ending in ''a'' are an indication to the female gender.
+Nidorina may be a combination of ''needle'', ''{{wp|rhinoceros}}'', and ''-ina'' (feminine diminutive suffix in Spanish and Italian). It may also involve 二度 ''nido'' (twice).
